For table lamps, people need to measure the table height and circumference. The lamp should not be more than one and a half times the height of the furnishing it sits on and the lampshade should not overlap the table. Consider the weight of the lamp. Lighter is better for less-travelled spots while heavier and stable is better for high traffic areas and small children.

Now, many of us are familiar with the basic type of lamp shade that stretches its material between the top and bottom cable circles of different diameters. This particular shape may be known as a drum, coolie, or empire, depending on the sizing ratio and the size of each element. Hardback shades have an exterior layer of fabric that is folded but nonetheless with an interior of plastic that will permit the light to filter through. However a more expensive one which is completely made of fabric is really a silk lamp.

If you prefer another style of antique lamp, try an antique piano lamp. They can be clipped onto things like a desk and used as a reading lamp or they can light up a framed picture on a shelf or the fireplace mantel. Piano lamps can be used in the hallway or in the kitchen. The style permits antique piano lamps to be a part of just about any room of your house.

It is advised that you choose a lamp of appropriate size. For instance, in a narrow table a small-sized lamp would look best. On the other hand, a bulky table will need to have a larger-sized lamp. It can also help if you take the necessary measurements which can ensure that the height of the lamp will be perfect for the area you are going to place it. Also ensure that the bottom of the shade should be even with your cheekbone when you are sitting on a chair. The light should also fall on the page you are reading.
